I bought my battery in December 2013 and now it does not hold a charge for any length of time? Is this to be expected?

No, not for me. I have made sure to discharge my battery though. In unplugging and using battery only, after a full charge that procedure ensures proper battery capacity.

I had issues with my battery because I kept it charged when not in use. I found out you should NOT keep it charged; rather keep it in the vac until it dies and then recharge, this will extend the life of the battery. I bought a new battery and that solved my problem. Good luck.

Contact the company. Battery sounds defective. They promptly sent me a replacement when I told them. Replacement battery has been flawless for 1.5 yrs. NO complaints.See my review for details:http://www.amazon.com/review/RUZWUM3ZAKBZ4/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B00B2RS4VW

Is it possible the battery is not charged? The instructions suggest it is necessary to discharge fully then recharge. It may be it came discharged, and must be on charge to be recognized, I bought an inexpensive battery and it lasted about three days, then began indicating it should be replaced. The only other possibility would be an incorrect battery? Best regards, Sammy

It could be a bad battery. If it is a bad battery, you can call customer support, and they will send you a new one. They were very pleasant when I spoke with them about a battery issue not holding a charge. At the time, the customer service person told me that new batteries should be charged for at least 24 hours in order to keep a full charge. He also told me if the battery didn't work, that they would send me a new one.

Hmm.Nope that doesn't sound right. I bought mine months ago but it was flat like a normal battery should be. I would contact the seller and let them know?

I have not had to replace the battery for the last two years. Since the price is so reasonable, I would purchase a new one instead of replace the battery. It is nor worthy replace the battery. I hope that help.

The camera for which I bought this battery is still new to me. I bought the battery as a back-up and have only charged it once. It is new and my past experience with other lithium-ion batteries for other cameras leads me to believe that this one will continue to do its job for at least two or three years. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

I have had mine since early December and have not had any issues with it and I have not yet changed the battery.

wow, i just now looked at what i got and mine had 12/17/2010. You better ask the seller if you are indeed going to get that kind of battery because they don't usually give you what is posted on the site. better be sure before buying.

I got this for my son last year. About 4 months ago the battery quit holding a charge. For a time it quit turning on and somehow my husband rebooted it and got it going again (sorry, I don't remember how they did it). It works as long as it's plugged in.

I did as well, and it did the same exact thing. Mine only lasted for a couple of months. I asked a tech at Best Buy and he said the best place to get a battery is through the manufacturer, which is so expensive we are better off buying a new laptop.

Hi there! I've been using this battery for a month in that same model and had no problems so far. Maybe it's a faulty one. If i were you, i would contact Anker support service. =)

Not certain, but I believe they mean it's not a refurb. I've had mine for a few months now and haven't had any issues. Battery holds a charge as expected.

I have had this computer for approximately 14 months and my battery holds charge now for only about an hour to 90 minutes. I am having difficulty finding another one, can someone please tell me what replacement battery would work? thanks!
